Chapter 30: Domineering Secretary Bai Yueguang 9 Male Supporting Role
When Wen Qianning woke up the next day, Ji Hanlin had already left. She stood up and changed her clothes.
It was still early, and Wen Qianning was sitting at her desk bored. Her eyes swept over the ugly doll on the desk. She stretched out her finger and gently poked the doll's chubby cheek.
My wrist twisted for some reason and I wasn't paying attention, the doll swayed and rolled down the table, falling on the carpet with a "bang".
Wen Qianning's heart tightened, and she quickly bent down to pick it up. As soon as she touched the back of the doll, she felt something hard, like a card hidden in the fur.
She was stunned for a moment, then carefully pinched the doll's ears and turned it over, only to discover that there was actually... a secret compartment on the back?!
Her heart suddenly started beating violently. Wen Qianning bit her lip and gently unzipped the zipper. Sure enough, she touched the corner of a card.
When I pulled it out, I saw it was a black card?
There was a tiny note on the back of the card, written in Ji Hanlin's handwriting, with just one simple line: The password is your birthday.
She recalled the time she and Ji Hanlin had gone to City S last week, when she'd lost so many games. She'd felt so bad, so she'd casually mentioned it. He hadn't said much at the time, but it had already registered with her...
Because I was worried about hurting her self-esteem, I wanted to give her material help in this way.
But the problem now is, with the money given by Ji Hanlin, Bai Yueguang's debt can be paid off immediately. In addition, the system has also determined that the node task has been completed. Does she really... still want to sell the project information to Shengshi?
Wen Qianning frowned, thinking carefully about the plot, and confirmed that the original novel did not contain a plot in which the male protagonist gave Bai Yueguang such a black card.
Realizing that the plot had inevitably deviated again, she rubbed her temples with a headache, wondering what to do now.
The doll was still lying on the carpet, its tilted head seeming to be looking at her silently. Wen Qianning squatted down to pick up the doll and smoothed its messy fur with her fingers.
She was feeling upset at the moment, and coincidentally, the screen of a mobile phone on the corner of the desk lit up. It was a message from Lin Haozhe's special assistant, reminding her of the contract and saying that the driver who was going to pick her up had stopped at the door.
His thoughts were disrupted, Wen Qianning didn't care about anything, sighed and was about to go out.
The car slowly stopped at the entrance of the building. The driver got out and opened the door for her, and Wen Qianning walked in. The front desk had already received the notice and led her directly to the top floor conference room.
When the door of the conference room opened, Wen Qianning raised his head and bumped into someone who was walking out of the glass door.
The man was tall and straight, with a prominent brow and a smile on his lips.
His eyes were sharp and scrutinizing, and when his gaze fell on Wen Qianning, he paused for two seconds.
The woman in front of him had a cool pale complexion, clear eyes, pale red lips, and a calm and comfortable temperament.
He had seen Wen Qianning's photo and knew that the person in front of him was Ji Hanlin's secretary. Moreover... judging from Gu Yanran's attitude towards Wen Qianning, it seemed that she and Ji Hanlin had a complicated relationship.
As expected of Ji Hanlin's woman, she was truly extraordinary and beautiful. Lin Haozhe raised the corners of his lips, becoming somewhat interested in the woman in front of him.
He was curious, if... not only did he set a trap for Ji Hanlin in the competition, but he also snatched away his woman, how would Ji Hanlin, such an indifferent and arrogant person, react?
"Miss Wen?" Lin Haozhe spoke in a lazy tone, with a low voice and a slightly rising ending.
Wen Qianning didn't know what the male supporting character in the novel looked like, but when he said that, she understood that the man in front of her was Lin Haozhe.
"Mr. Lin." She smiled slightly and kept a polite distance.
Lin Haozhe's eyes swept over her inch by inch. Wen Qianning was not dressed formally today. She wore a slightly loose shirt with a skirt, and her hair was casually draped over her shoulders. She did not look like someone who came to discuss a contract worth tens of millions, but rather like a young and immature student.
Because Wen Qianning didn't think this matter was that important. If it weren't for the plot, she wouldn't have wanted to betray Ji Hanlin and switch to Shengshi.
"You come to sign the contract dressed like this?" Lin Haozhe suddenly laughed, his tone sounded like a joke, but his eyes were not very polite.
Wen Qianning's expression paused slightly, she was confused, and before she could say anything, he grabbed her wrist.
"Let's go."
"Where are we going?" She didn't react for a moment and was led a few steps. "Aren't we going to sign the contract?"
"No rush." Lin Haozhe turned his head to look at her, smiling wickedly, "I have a private tasting event to attend. Miss Wen is free anyway, so why not come with me?"
Wen Qianning: “?”
Without saying a word, he led her out of the elevator. Wen Qianning was stuffed into the car, and before she could react, the car started.
Wen Qianning was still a little confused until the car slowly stopped in front of a single-family building. She finally couldn't help but ask, "Are we there yet?"
"No hurry, go change into something nice first." Lin Haozhe said lazily, his fingers unconsciously playing with the steering wheel. He tilted his head to glance at her with a mocking smile on his face. "Miss Wen is so beautiful, wouldn't it be a waste if she didn't dress up?"
"...Change clothes?" Wen Qianning was stunned.
"Yes." He nodded, "I believe that Miss Wen is so naturally beautiful. If she dresses up well, she will definitely stun everyone."
When saying this, Lin Haozhe's eyes were lazy, but in his mind he had already imagined her wearing a dress, high heels, standing in the crowd, being followed by countless eyes.
Wen Qianning frowned, feeling uncomfortable. She wanted to refuse: "I have no obligation to accompany you to do these things today."
"Don't want to sign the contract?" Lin Haozhe replied lazily, glancing at her from the corner of his eye. "If you really don't want to, I'll take you back right now."
Wen Qianning choked and was speechless because of him. She rolled her eyes silently in her heart.
If the original plot of the novel didn't require a contract, she wouldn't want to come. She thought that prosperity was something popular, but in her eyes, it was actually not rare at all.
But Lin Haozhe obviously didn't know what Wen Qianning was really thinking, and he didn't intend to give her time to hesitate. As soon as he stopped the car, he opened the door for her without saying a word, and then a staff member in black uniforms immediately came forward.
"Mr. Lin." The stylist was obviously familiar with him and spoke respectfully, "It's ready inside."
Lin Haozhe led the way in, and Wen Qianning was pushed into a softly lit room where several dresses were already hanging on the rack on the side.
He casually pointed at a nude pink off-the-shoulder dress and tilted his head to look at the girl: "This one, put it on."
Wen Qianning looked down at the shirt and skirt she had casually put on today, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"...Do you really want to wear this?" she asked.
Lin Haozhe snorted and raised his eyebrows: "Miss Wen, with a face like this, if I don't let you dress up today, then why did I bring you here?"
He noticed Wen Qianning's hesitation, took a half step forward, handed the dress to her, and whispered in her ear, "Well, be good, go in and change, and come out and show me."
Wen Qianning took her dress and walked into the dressing room, slowly changing. The dress was made of thin, light material, and it quickly clung to her body, outlining her curves. She stood in front of the mirror, looking at her shoulder line that revealed her collarbone, feeling a little dazed.
Although it seemed that Lin Haozhe casually picked a dress for her to change into, after she put it on, he found that this dress unexpectedly suited her style, and it made the girl in the mirror look as beautiful as a peach.
A few minutes later, Wen Qianning gritted her teeth, lifted the curtain and walked out.
Lin Haozhe was originally leaning on the sofa and browsing his phone. When he glanced at it, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and his whole body straightened up.
He didn't speak immediately, but his eyes stayed on her, from her neck, collarbone, to waistline, every part was clearly seen.
"Of course, Miss Wen, it's really... the more you look at it, the more you can't take your eyes off it." The corners of Lin Haozhe's mouth slowly rose, revealing a malicious smile.
Ji Hanlin really had good vision. He sneered in his heart and became more determined to snatch this woman away from him.
Wen Qianning felt uncomfortable being stared at by Lin Haozhe, and her tone was not very polite: "Can we go now?"
"Don't be in a hurry. You haven't put on makeup yet." He walked over and reached out to brush the hair by her ears. Wen Qianning subconsciously raised her hand and slapped his hand back.
"Just talk, don't touch me. Mr. Lin, please respect yourself." She frowned and said with some disgust.
Lin Haozhe paused, seeming a little bit unbelievable. After all, the women before him would flock to him just by waving his hand.
Wen Qianning is the first woman who is so rude to him... Besides, she wouldn't be like this to Ji Hanlin, right?
He suppressed his smile, picked out a pair of high heels and handed them to her, then called the makeup artist: "Put some makeup on her."
The stylist moved quickly and finished the makeup in just over ten minutes. When Wen Qianning looked up at the mirror again, her originally gentle temperament was magnified, her eyes were upturned, and her lips were slightly brighter, which was not ostentatious but extremely seductive.
Lin Haozhe glanced at the mirror behind her and chuckled, "Almost done, let's go."
After leaving the styling studio, Wen Qianning originally thought that Lin Haozhe would take her directly to the so-called tasting session, but the car stopped in front of a high-end Western restaurant.
She frowned: "Didn't you say you were going to a tasting?"
Lin Haozhe, on the other hand, appeared to be taking his time. He glanced back at her as he pushed the door open and got out of the car: "I haven't eaten yet."
"Then you eat, I'm leaving first." Wen Qianning said in a cold tone and raised his hand to open the car door.
"Let's go?" He raised his head with a smile, leaning against the car door, "Miss Wen, about the contract..."
He looked down at her with a hint of condescending amusement in his eyes, as if he was looking at a kitten on the verge of anger and teasing it.
Wen Qianning paused, his face darkened, and he felt annoyed.
She knew that Lin Haozhe was deliberately using the signing issue to pressure her, but the original text of the novel had a plot about Bai Yueguang and Shengshi signing a contract.
There was a moment when Wen Qianning wanted to slam the table and quit, but in the end she just took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and swallowed back the words "If you don't want to sign, then don't sign."
Lin Haozhe gentlemanly opened the restaurant door for her and led her to a seat. The whole process was done in a very formal manner, but in Wen Qianning's view, this gentlemanly attitude was a complete provocation.
Wen Qianning sat opposite the man. She had no appetite and took a few bites casually, her eyes drifting out the window.
Lin Haozhe didn't care about the girl's absent-mindedness at all, but became more interested.
The more Wen Qianning looked like this, the more he wanted to see what she would be like when she took the initiative.
